POLISH AN LW POLYGONAL BARREL?

[BABz58]

It seems normal for him to not deal with issues, thats what stopped me from making a purchase. A good company is measured how they deal with issues after the sale, anyone can prep it, through it in a box and ship it fast. SPAW is the same way, have an issue…crickets.

Same

I've sent AGT an email and they would like me to ship the barrel back to them for inspection, and they'll determine if it's a factory defect I was hoping they would just send me one so I wouldn't be without the rifle for 6 weeks. I bought it from Talon Tunes, and they clearly don't want to be involved.

Frankly, it shoots better in my limited testing after I polished it. I'm going to shoot it some more, and at distance, and if accuracy has improved despite the pitting, I'm just going to keep it. It sucks, but I'm not competing with this rifle, and if it's MOA at 100 (it was about this already) I don't have much to gain. I would just be proving a point. And I'd rather have my coyote hammer at the ready

Hi, I just happened to come across this post.

So, did you manage to swap out the CZ barrel successfully? How was the accuracy?

Actually, I ran into the exact same issue with a VULCAN barrel. I can't tell from the borescope if it's the groove or the land, but it's got some serious surface roughness.
However, I managed to restore the accuracy by carefully lapping it. Not sure how long it'll hold up though.
By the way, this is also a CZ barrel.

I did not get it swapped. I did polish and firelap it though. It's still a shooter, so it wasn't worth my trouble to go any further.

Thanks for the reply.

I hear CZ barrels are known for their accuracy, but if there are issues like this, it makes you think twice.
By the way, the accuracy before the lap was terrible. However, since I also recrowned the muzzle at the same time, it's unclear whether the cause was actually inside the barrel.
